Event Description

What is Mulch?
Mulch is material used to enrich soil. It is an insulator, an enricher. It assists in both growth and decay. It is a slow entanglement of nutrients, a layer of protection, a threshold between the world and the world within.

MULCH is an arts collective composed of friends and collaborators across so called Canada. We seek to explore art through collaborative and land based practices, allowing for fragmented ideas to be a part of a continuous cycle of decay and rebirth.
MULCH Collective is made up of Jules Cundari, Rahel Elias, Mona Fani, Mary Fisher, Isaac Forsland, Sarah Genge, Max Littledale, and Jasper Wrinch, among many others.

MULCH MULCH MULCH is MULCH Collective’s first experience collaborating and exhibiting work together. The works presented are the result of a 2 year-long endeavour to establish an artistic network of collaboration and cooperation, in an effort to support, degenerate, entangle, repurpose, and enrich each others works and practices.

While the artworks that makes up MULCH MULCH MULCH are as disparate as the artists, encompassing a multitude of media, techniques, and geographic locations, the exhibition is centred on the ethos of growth and decay, of cyclical regeneration and degeneration, of beginnings merging with ends in both theme and practice. Each piece has been produced in response to another, piling onto or deconstructing imagery, ideas, and materials. Using ecological processes of decomposition, mutation, and chaos as a guide to the practice of each artist, MULCH aims for collective vision of mutual care and creativity.

MULCH MULCH MULCH is an expression of how the many fragments of individual artistic lives can feed off one another and coexist in a mutually-enriching symbiosis. We seep into the mulch around us, are sheltered by it, and feed from it. We let each leaf, each chip, each scrap of material imbue its richness upon every other. We wallow in the mire and are enlivened by it.
